Since our last report a lot of time has passed and a lot of things has happened. Let me start int he beginning :)
After we have visited 2nd time to Cirip- who has a hellion already that time- both of us started to think about to fulfill the flat with games, cat furniture, cat bed and with everything else whom we expect him home. We immediately went to a big animal store where we shared our plan with a kind seller , who stopped us immediately.
She advised to us to buy only the most needed things at the moment for the newcomer, what were the following:
Carrier, feeding and drinking bowl, bowl of bedding, bedding and maximum 1 piece of toy. Her reason was not to spend a lot of money until we do not know what the cat likes. Beacuse if we think he would love the soft bed it is not sure that he would take a look at it, not even lay into it.
She had an excellent idea to remove the top of the carrier, fill it like it would be a bed and if Cirip likes to use it we can think about to buy a real cat bed.
With this idea she has gained a lot of money for us , beacuse Cirip prefers to sleep int he armchair or on my head, but never in his bed.
The expeted arrived finally! Int he morning we have left to move home our Cirip cat from his temporary adoptive. Both of us were so excited, we did not know what to expect exactly.
Luckilly he slept the whole way to home. When we arrived home the excitement started :) The main reason of the excitement was a cat mother with her 6 kitten ( White family)
Int he meantime we became temporary adoptives and we had no idea what would be the opinion of Bibizli ( the mother cat) of the newcomer. We have received advices from several places, like first not to take Cirip out of the carrier, show him to Ribizli this way , in the meantime fondle Ribizli and give her snack to link the arrival of Cirip with good memories.
Unfortunately the practic and the food did not help, Ribizli persistently bured and blustered to the small newcomer. I have to share that Cirip did not took it as a drama, he continued to sleep int he carrier. After a while we felt brave enough and took Cirip out from the carier and show him from closer to Ribizli. The impact did not fall off, she even more bured and blustered to the small black scoop.
The first thing- what also was an advise- we did to put Cirip immediately to the bleeding, a sin the BIG BOOK is written, that if you show it to a housebroken cat it will find and will doh is thing there after that. I have to say the it did not happen like this with us :)
The first piddle in my cover, the second one on Attila’s, the thisrd one appeared ont he bed :) We were thinking about what is wrong but finally by the night other day the issue has been solved and he started to use the bedding. Of course not from himself, we put him to the bedding bowl around every hour ,scratch with his small leg and rewarded with nice word and snack if he did his thing there by mistake :)
Slowly his relationship with Ribizli improved also, they just needed a bit of time and help.
Today if Cirip attack Ribizli for play there is no buror bluster anymore, she just walk away with the message on her face „ leave me alone you small frog , I do not have time for such jocularity”
For sure Cirip does not understand her reaction and runs after her.
Small Ribizli does not have a minute of peace. If she is int he bedroom, her own childern doen not let her in peace, if she is int he leaving room, than the small come by change kid does not leave any time to breath for her.
When my parent knew they they were going to be „grandparents” , they became so excited and my dad has build a super cat furniture to Cirip. It has 3 floors and the little hellion loves it so much. The first two floores are for playing, the third one is the bedroom. I can advise for everybody to invest for a cat furniture, it is very useful. The cat has his own empire, this makes him calm, and he grinds his nails on his own house, not on our furnitures :)
Slowly we learn how to live together. We started to know what does he like and what not, and he started to learn what is allowed and what is not as well. However he does notreally intrested the word „no”, but we try. Maybe sooner or later we can break his stubbornness and he will expect that the courtain is not existing to jump and swing on it with a battle-cry. That in the kitchen cabinet we do not used to play hide and seek, that the onion and potato keeping bowl is not a be din the pantry, that his drinking bowl is not to pool and it is nota s good game that starting from the other side of the flat he arrives to the bowk by a battle-cry and after running through the flat wet, that we do not jump into the wash bucket and I could still continue :)
After that when he tired and comes to mum or dad for sleeping, flattering, banging ( what he does cannot be called purring), nestling or dudling ( we call it when he bites our fingers softly before sleep), we forget all badness immediately and again he is the most sweet, most lovely kid int he World.
I can say that our life has changed significantly since we adopted Cirip. I can also say, that despite our life has screwed up, but the love, the kindness, the crazy payer hours we got from him so far I would never give to anybody else. For such a company being a cat or a dog human can get much more than ever able to give back.
Maybe sometime accident happens with piddle, maybe the doctor is expensive, maybe they drift us out the world by arriving home that uncountable ammount of t non- bridled toilet paper rools are laying througout the flat, but these things are not inline with the love w eget from them.
Gabi and Attila
